We are seeking a good, tried and tested, reliable etc etc File Archiving package for Sun OS. Just so there is no confusion, I dont mean a disc backup package - we've sorted that one out thanks - but a package to provide network users with the facility to safely store off-line large quantities of stuff they no longer require on-line. There seem to be numerous offering for VAX/VMS but none (surely not!) for UNIX. What do you large commercial and university users do with your multi-gigabytes of stuff which you dont want to clog up your valuable on-line disc space. Any replies will be summarised and posted back to the net if appropriate. Please mail replies to: in the UK: wright@uk.co.gec-mrc from the US: wright%gec-mrc.co.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk via uucp: wright!gec-mrc!ukc!mcvax!<etc etc> Trevor Wright, GEC-Marconi Research Centre, Chelmsford UK +44 245 73331 x 3224
